Data for: Modeling coordination between renewables and grid: Policies to mitigate distribution grid constraints using residential PV-battery systems

This dataset was created by Paul Neetzow at Resource Economics Group of Humboldt-University Berlin in 2018. It provides hourly and state-wise (Bundesland) electricity data for Germany in 2015. It is used and described in Neetzow, P., Mendelevitch, R. and S. Siddiqui (2018): Modeling coordination between renewables and grid: Policies to mitigate distribution grid constraints using residential PV-battery systems. DIW Discussion Paper 1766.
